Sahi; Access limited to subscribing institution; Also available in print format N2 - This book gives an overview of industrial crops, various issues related to industrial crops, crops and processes involved in generating energy in the form of heat and electricity as well as liquid fuel, ethanol production from sugar crops, grain crops and lignocellulosic crops and processes and byproducts produced, biodiesel production from oilseed crops, industrial oil types and their uses separate from biofuel, improvement of oilseed crops for industrial uses, characteristics of different crop starches and their appropriate uses for various applications other than ethanol production, research towards improving the quantity and quality of starch composition in plants, fibre and dye crops (cotton, bast fibres and dye crops), production and processing of cotton as well as research accomplishments in improving cotton fibre quality, important feedstock crops, manufacturing process from plant to products and various end uses for these fibres, plants that supply natural fibre dyes and process of fibre dyeing, crops that are the sources of rubber, gums, resins and waxes, important rubber crops (rubber tree and guayule) and their culture, breeding and quantitative and qualitative aspects of their latex, gums, resins and waxes and their sources as well as their trade, botanical insecticides and important insecticidal crops and their active ingredients as well as the prospects for using natural insecticides in pest control. The utilization of industrial crops for the generation of products to their deployment for such applications as the remediation of contaminated soils, the principles of plant-based remediation, the traits that make certain crops suited for such use and a description of these remedial crops are also highlighted UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1079/9781845936167.0000 ER -
